Tabitha & Wolf Historical Mystery

Step into 1897 Victorian London: Unravel Love and Intrigue with The Tabitha & Wolf Historical Mystery Series, where Mystery meets Romance with a splash of Humour. Tabitha was used to being a social pariah. Could her standing in society get any worse? Tabitha, Lady Chesterton, the Countess of Pembroke, is newly widowed at only 22 years of age. With no son to inherit the title, it falls to a dashing, distant cousin of her husband's, Jeremy Chesterton, known as Wolf. It quickly becomes apparent that Wolf had consorted with some of London's most dangerous citizens before inheriting the title. Can he leave this world behind, or will shadowy figures from his past follow him into his new aristocratic life in Mayfair? And can Tabitha avoid being caught up in Wolf's dubious activities? It seems it's well and truly time for Tabitha to leave her gilded cage behind for good!

Wolf had hoped he could put his thief-taking life behind him when he unexpectedly inherited an earldom. Jeremy Wolfson Chesterton, Wolf, the new Earl of Pembroke, finds himself sucked back into another investigation against his better judgement. He knows better than to think he can keep Tabitha, the wife of his deceased cousin, away from the case. She's running his household and increasingly finding her way into his life and, to his surprise, his heart. He respects her intelligence and insights but can't help trying to protect her. As the investigation suddenly becomes far more complicated and dangerous, how can Wolf save an innocent man and keep Tabitha safe?

Summoned to Edinburgh by the Dowager Countess of Pembroke, Tabitha and Wolf reluctantly board a train and head north to Scotland. The dowager's granddaughter, Lily, refuses to participate in the preparations for her first season unless Tabitha and Wolf investigate the disappearance of her friend, Peter. Initially skeptical of the need to investigate, Tabitha and Wolf quickly realize that the idealistic Peter may have stumbled upon dark secrets. How far would someone go to cover their tracks? Tabitha is drawn into Edinburgh's seedy underbelly as she and Wolf try to solve the case while attempting to keep the dowager in the dark about Peter's true identity.

Who is this mysterious woman from Wolf's past who can so easily summon him to her side? When Lady Arlene Archibald tracks Wolf down and begs him for help, he plans to travel to Brighton alone to see her. What was he thinking? Instead, he finds himself with an unruly entourage of lords, ladies, servants, children, and even a dog. Can and will he help Arlene prove her friends innocence? How will he manage Tabitha coming face-to-face with his first love? And how is he to dissuade the Dowager Countess of Pembroke from insinuating herself into the investigation? Beneath its veneer of holiday, seaside fun, Brighton may be more sinister than it seems.

The Dowager Countess of Pembroke is missing! While Wolf contemplates whether or not to continue investigating, it seems that the dowager has taken matters into her own hands and is investigating a case independently. But why has she gone missing from her home for two nights, and what mischief has she gotten herself into? Tracking down the elderly woman takes Tabitha and Wolf into some of the darkest, most dangerous corners of the city. What on earth is the exasperating dowager caught up in that she seems to have become entangled with London's prostitutes?

It seems Christmas will be anything but peaceful this year! Tabitha and Wolf are hoping to spend a quiet Christmas at Glanwyddan Hall, the Pembroke estate in Wales. However, before they even leave London, they receive unsettling news of disturbing pranks happening on the estate. Is this just some local youthful mischief, or is something more sinister afoot? Moreover, why is the dowager countess so determined that they not cancel their visit? With the dowager guarding a secret, Tabitha and Wolf are thrust into a desperate quest to uncover the truth. As danger looms, they must navigate treacherous paths to safeguard their loved ones. Will Tabitha and Wolf reveal the malevolent force lurking in the shadows before it's too late?

The Investigative Countess, Rapier Sharp Logic paired with Great Insight and Boldness. A Private Inquiry Agent. When the dowager countess receives her first assignment as a private inquiry agent from Tuchinsky, an East End gangster, she immediately throws herself into the case with gusto. Meanwhile, Lord Langley hires Tabitha and Wolf for an assignment that takes them deep into London's Jewish neighbourhood. Is there a connection between the two investigations? More importantly, can the two investigative teams work together? Wolf has made his peace with continuing to take on investigations and with having Tabitha partner with him, but how will he manage the dowager countess' continued meddling in such a dangerous case?

Finally, Tabitha and Wolf are married and they couldn't be happier. The last thing either of them wants is to be sucked back into a murder investigation. Tabitha and Wolf, eager to embrace their new life as a married couple, have agreed not to take on any new investigations for the time being. Instead, they want to enjoy a peaceful time as newlyweds, uninterrupted by murder and intrigue. However, their plans are abruptly disrupted when a figure from a previous investigation, Christopher Kit Bailey, reappears and pleads for their help. Despite their best intentions, they find themselves unable to turn him away and refuse the case. The Dowager Countess of Pembroke typically insists on meddling in Tabitha and Wolf's murder inquiries. This time, they are relieved when her usual eagerness to be part of their investigations is replaced by an uncharacteristic reluctance to help her nemesis, Kit Bailey. However, the dowager's stance changes when she realises that this case might unearth another of her well-kept secrets; a revelation she cannot afford. It seems that there will be no honeymoon, at least for now, as Tabitha and Wolf are caught up in the intrigue of London's West End theatres.

It's spring, and love is in the air! Wedding bells are almost chiming for Lady Lily and Viscount Tobias, but will a dark family secret resurface to spoil their nuptials? Tabitha and Wolf have just arrived back in London after their relaxing stay in Corfu. They haven't thought about murder investigations for almost two months. However, any hopes they have that this respite might last a little longer are shattered when the groom's father, Clarence Williams, the Earl of Warwick, is accused of murder just before Tobias' wedding day to Lady Lily. Can Tabitha and Wolf clear the earl's name in time for the wedding to proceed as planned? And what on earth is the dowager doing teaming up with Uncle Duncan, of all people? Will Lady Lily and Viscount Tobias walk down the aisle and live happily ever after? Only if Tabitha and Wolf, with the help of the dowager and Uncle Duncan, can find the true killer.

At last, Tabitha and Wolf can relax and settle into newlywed bliss… or so they think. Just as they prepare to leave London for a quiet summer at the Pembroke Estate, an unexpected-and rather cryptic-invitation arrives. The notoriously flamboyant Henry Cyril Paget, 5th Marquess of Anglesey, has personally requested their presence at Plas Newydd, his ancestral estate, accompanied by a desperate plea for their investigative skills. Intrigued, the couple agrees to a detour-with the ever-formidable dowager in tow, of course. But upon their arrival, it's not just the marquess's lavish theatrics and eccentric indulgences that catch them off guard. Another guest is in residence-none other than Empress Elisabeth of Austria, "Sisi" herself, who has taken refuge at Plas Newydd after receiving chilling threats against her life. Now, Tabitha and Wolf must unravel the danger that lurks within the marquess's gilded world-before their most illustrious charge becomes its next victim.

After their unexpected detour to Anglesey, Tabitha and Wolf are looking forward to a relaxing summer in Pembroke. Now that Wolf has embraced his inheritance of the Pembroke title, he finds himself curious about its history. Tabitha surprises him by arranging a private tour of the Pembroke Castle ruins for what was supposed to be a lovely family day out. As they wander the castle grounds, listening to the stories told by the knowledgeable caretaker, Tabitha and Wolf make the shocking discovery of a dead body. While there seems to be much local interest in explaining the corpse away as a victim of a freak accident, Tabitha can't shake the idea that there is something far more sinister at work. As she and Wolf begin to investigate, they get pulled into not just a murder case, but a puzzle that is over seven hundred years old and involves the very first Earl of Pembroke. Can Tabitha and Wolf uncover a murderer even as they find themselves pitted against shadowy forces, their every move watched and danger lurking where they least expect it?

Tabitha and Wolf have been invited to historic Salisbury for a scholarly lecture celebrating their recent discovery at Pembroke Castle. However, the occasion takes a dark turn when the lecturer is found dead beneath the towering ruins of Old Sarum. As the couple begins to investigate, they are drawn into a labyrinth of ancient Druidic rites, shadowy Church intrigues, and secrets buried beneath the chalky plains. An excavation near Stonehenge uncovers more than bones, awakening old rivalries and new dangers. In a landscape where myth and history intertwine, Tabitha and Wolf must navigate shifting allegiances and long-buried truths. As tensions rise and the past casts long shadows over the present, they race to uncover the killer before another body is claimed by secrets that are best left buried.

London, 1898. The age of the motor-car has dawned, and Wolf is determined to embrace it. When he acquires one of the new mechanical marvels and enters one of England's first great motor-car runs from London to Brighton, Tabitha is less than enthusiastic - particularly as she has other reasons to proceed with caution. At Wolf's insistence, she travels by train with the dowager to await his arrival at the finish line. But what should have been a day of triumph soon turns to dread when tragedy strikes the course, and Wolf finds himself accused of a fellow driver's death. Refusing to stand idly by, Tabitha and the dowager embark upon their own investigation, uncovering rivalries, jealousies, and whispered scandals among the competitors. As if that wasn't enough, Tabitha has to endure Lady Arlene Archibald, a woman from Wolf's past, whose reappearance threatens to complicate matters in every possible way. As engines cool and tempers flare, Tabitha must summon every ounce of investigative skill and patience to uncover the truth before her husband's reputation and their future are wrecked beyond repair.

When the dowager receives an unexpected invitation from Queen Victoria herself to attend a grand concert at the Royal Albert Hall, she suspects there's more at stake than music. A foreign dignitary's sudden death soon confirms it. Confined to bed after a health scare, a very pregnant Tabitha must lend her sharp mind from afar, guiding Wolf and their new friend, the indomitable American heiress Isabella, through a maze of coded messages, vanished guests, and diplomatic whispers. The trio must tread carefully as rumours swirl of anarchists, spies, and scandal within the highest circles. One wrong move could spark an international incident. They must act quickly, but discreetly, mindful of their reputations and of the trust placed in them by their sovereign. Elegant, witty, and full of intrigue, A Lyrical Woman reunites readers with Tabitha, Wolf, and the formidable Dowager Countess of Pembroke in a tale of courage, cunning, and devotion to both family and Crown.
